5.1 Main Conclusions
Vaccine and Covid Cases:
1- Vaccination rates and Covid cases are generally negatively correlated;
2- Looking at different regions we see less clear relationships than in areas;
3- Hospitalisations and positives cases, deaths , swabs all have a positive relationship across different regions and areas;
4- Female and male Covid cases as well as first dose vaccination and full vaccination also seem to correlate positively across and area.
Socio-Economic Factors:
1- Clear visual evidence showing that as of end of 2020 areas and regions with lower employment, more inequality , lower degree of higher education etc., have lower vaccination rates but not necessarily more covid cases.
Factors affecting vaccination:
1- I can conclude that socio-economic factors promote higher vaccination rates in every regions population more so in areas;
2- Geography is clearly a major factor in the spread of Covid as correlations within areas across regions are stronger than in between regions of different areas;
3- Daily positive cases is not a major driver of daily vaccination as it seems that other variables come into play that push people to get their first dose.
